Someone once told me,
That trust comes through respect.
And when it's all equal respect,
Then you can trust someone more.
But trust is a scary thing.
Trust is hard for me to understand.
It hurts and it's cruel.
And way too easy to toss around.
But respect?
Respect I understand.
Respect puts things into perspective.
It's earned to be given.
So thank you my old friend.
For teaching me
How to understand something that scares me,
Through something I know well.
